3 of the Best Dodge Challenger Models – Miami Lakes Automall Dodge
The Dodge Challenger raced onto the muscle car scene in the early 1970s. Since its arrival, it has captured the attention of many enthusiasts. As a result, the collector’s value for Dodge Challengers is among the highest of any muscle car according to Edmunds.
What gave the Dodge Challenger such a unique appeal wasn’t just its iconic styling and raw performance, it was its versatility. Dodge offered more powertrain choices than any other manufacturer. Its exceptional range included the awesome “Elephant Motor” and the long lasting “Slant Six.”
The Dodge Challenger immediately gained widespread appeal in the United States. One of the reasons for its success was its appearance on screen in the movie Vanishing Point, a movie muscle car enthusiasts still talk of today.
The demand for these vehicles continues to remain high. It’s the reason why Dodge’s latest Challenger model: the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has received so much attention. While there have been several unique models of the Challenger over the years, here is a look at the three best.
